Abstract:
This review is designed to be a summary of the research conducted towards establishing ultrafast CT as a clinically appropriate tool for measuring myocardial blood flow. The methods and techniques used in the animal validation studies are presented. The results will be critically analyzed and the conclusions discussed. The proposed improvements to flow calculation algorithms will also be addressed. Technical improvements and experimental research needed will also be addressed.
